Garmin talk

765t suddenly cannot locate satellites. Everything else seems okay. Turns on fine. I have not suddenly moved to an area with poor reception. The unit worked fine before.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I've read about the feature and drive my own car for work, anywhere from 100 to 250 miles a day. If this could save me some gas I might be interested, but it mentions the 205 but not the 200 in the Garmin website.

i just bought lifetime maps and went to download it to my 580, but it says product already registerd to someone else,after trying for a couple of hours i finally figured out that apparently way back when i got my 580 i registered it under a different username and forgot,is there anyway to get maps and gps together--thanks for any help --tedseed10

Is it possible to edit POI files that are pre-installed on Nuvi 255W ?
For example, there was a retail food chain store that have gone out of business and there is a new store in place at the same location with New Name but my Nuvi still showes the Old Store at that location.
Thanks in Advance.

I saw a link in here the other day about how to download map source. The link suggested that you open it up through the directory to make it work. I did all of that. Any reason why anyone thinks it doesn't work? It says there is no map info on my computer or something like that. So do I basically have to buy new software or get the DVD to be able to use map source?

Several days ago someone posted with how to list the local stations being used by a traffic receiver. I cannot seem to find it again. Will someone help point me in the right direction? TIA

If I plan a route from say Phoenix, AZ to Indio, CA; Road Trip gives me a route as if I were flying in an airplane. It doesn't follow any roads? Do I have to drag the route to the roads, time consuming!
Or is a preference in the Road Trip application that I missed?
Thanks,

Can someone advise how to delete addresses from the "recently found" folder.. can you delete individual addresses or do you have to delete all of them.. also, how do you save an address in your "favorites"? Thanks

Has anyone noticed that the wait time for Garmin tech support is getting longer? Or is it my imagination?

About a year ago, I could call at 8 am central time and get right through, then transfered quickly to another specialist. The last couple of times I tried at 8 am central, I had to wait 10-15 minutes, then be transferred and wait another 30 minutes or more.

Nuvi 750----Anyone know the size of the mem for storing data points (waypoints)before it rolls over ? That is, either the number of points it can store or memory size in bytes.(MB)

I know I've read several posts from time to time where some of you have taken your GPSr on an airplane. Has anyone ever had a problem with getting it by security? I'm flying to San Diego next week and wanted to take mine with me. I plan to carry it in my pocket rather than put it in my suitcase because I don't want it to become lost or damaged.

being new to adding poi to my garmin,can someone tell me there location on my garmin after the files have been loaded onto my 750.for example all usa state parks.can i create an icon for easy access?thanks lary

Garmin has a new map for my nuvi 260W. I wonder about problems that may arise if I download the new map. If anyone has experience doing this, please tell me if you recommend that I proceed with the downlaod. Thank you.

The Harley Davidson Dealer POI you developed has been super helpful as we traveled throughout the country. In fact, we're head to California from Alaska tomorrow and the POI will help us during our trip. Thanks! FreddyP

i dont understand any of this stuff.is there some way to put poi in one file then put that file in the garmin.for exsam. thrift stores downloaded from a site and then gas stations .then put them in one folder .give it a name of my choise and put on the gps.so when i go to extras i only see the name i gave it.please help anyone thanks .also first time posting .first time gps.first time typing....

I have a Nuvi 650. Is it possible to make it show speed limits. Also I can get my eta but not the current time on display. Can anyone help?

I could not find anything about what I am going to ask so I thought here would be a good start.

Two times now I have been driving and the Nuvi 265T starts making a scratchy sound when you use the touch screen. A simple reboot work to get the audio sounding right again.

Anyone see this with the 265 or 2X5 models?

Occasionally I don’t hear the instructions from the nuvi and would like the unit to repeat. I read the owner’s manual for the 785T carfully, but nothing addresses that issue. Please don’t tell me that Garmin failed to include the option of having the unit repeat the last audio report. I tried touching all the corners, but no repeats. Did I miss something?

I just got my spring flyer from Hyundai with a free oil filter coupon. On the next page there was a list for a Pre trip Checklist. The number one item on the list " Purchase a Garmin Nuvi Navigation system."

Garmin has just introduced the nüvi 1490T GPSr. Supposedly it's "25 percent slimmer than most nüvi models" and has a 5-inch screen.
